Won A Landmark Case In New York Involving Recognition of a Foreign
Divorce Judgment including custody, and securing a mahr of $250,000 for the client
In 2012, the Supreme Court of Westchester
County handed down a decision in favor of my client. The court recognized a
divorce decree obtained from Abu Dhabi (UAE), including custody of children and
recognizing a mahr agreement of
$250,000. The entire court order is available on this link: http://law.justia.com/cases/new-york/other-courts/2012/2012-ny-slip-op-51875-u.html
The Appellate Division Affirms
The Appellate Division Affirms
On January 20, 2015, the Appellate
Division, Second Judicial Department, issued a ruling, in which the Court
affirmed the decision of the lower Court. The decision of the Appellate
Division is available on this link: http://www.courts.state.ny.us/courts/ad2/calendar/webcal/decisions/2016/D47647.pdf
Won A Landmark Case Involving Custody of Children
Saudi Arabia’s Shari’a Court issued a
custody order against a U.S. citizen woman who was married to a Saudi husband.
The husband obtained a court judgment from Saudi Arabia granting him custody of
his two daughters. The Court in Allegheny, Pennsylvanian agreed with our
argument that Saudi Arabia does not have jurisdiction, and the custody order
violates Pennsylvania public policy and that Saydi Arabia is in violation to
international human rights treaties.
The court order is not published yet, but
I have a copy at request. Once published, I will post the link online. For more
